Advanced ADHD Clinical Training for NHS Workforce Development
Supporting safer, more consistent ADHD assessment, prescribing, and clinical decision-making across primary care, mental health, and neurodevelopmental pathways.
Why NHS Workforce Teams Choose This Programme
NHS services are experiencing unprecedented demand for ADHD assessment and management. Clinicians across primary care, ARRS roles, mental health teams, and specialist services are being asked to work beyond traditional boundaries often without access to standardised, governance-aligned training.
This programme was created to address exactly that gap.
It provides evidence-based, case-driven, NICE-aligned training that strengthens clinical reasoning, reduces risk, and supports consistent MDT practice.

- GPs and GP trainees
- Nurse prescribers
- Mental Health Practitioners
